We had fun with a shiny New Year's art project today. We talked a little bit about what New Years is, and if any of them got to stay up late, or go to a party over the weekend. No one said that they got to use confetti to ring in the New Year, so we used a little of our own today. :)

We had some paper punch "confetti" left over from one of the times they got to play with the paper punch, and some very shiny confetti scraps that I had. And, I decided to set out some paint brushes to encourage them to spread the glue around a little bit, so they had fun with that, too. Then, we added some paper triangle shapes to represent party hats or horns, and a little "Happy New Year" banner to top it all off.

The kids called these their "party papers" and I'm pretty sure their favorite part was that they didn't have to stick to our usual chant of "just a dot, not a lot!" but got to use just about as much glue as they wanted. :)
